Gloriously awful student ideas

SEK and his class are brainstorming ideas for their end-of-quarter rhetoric-in-practice project.

SEK: Given the fact that we studied Fellowship of the Ring and Game of Thrones, I could easily see something like the "Sean Bean Death Reel" being a viable final project.

STUDENT #1: What if we made a perfect copy of the One Ring out of metal?

SEK: Nope. You can't turn in anything you bought from Skymall.

STUDENT #2: Can we do Reverse Game of Thrones?

SEK: A Throne of Games?

STUDENT #2: Like we get a regular guy to play Tyrion and hire little people to play everybody el—

SEK: No! No reversing Game of Thrones! That's unacceptable on so many levels I don't even know where to begin.

Student 2 should watch Living In Oblivion (as should you, if you haven't seen it).

[In case that was too obscure, I was thinking of this scene. But the movie really is worth watching.]

It's only obscure to people who aren't as old as us, I think.
